Your iPhone® charging cable gets a lot of use. Constant plugging and unplugging can quickly rub away cable sleeves and fray connector wires. The Belkin Mixit DuraTek cable was built to stand up to the strain. Tough Kevlar® fibers reinforce the wiring for added strength. Durable thermoplastic rubber encases the connectors, designed to withstand over 5,000 180° bends.

Quality construction

But Belkin didn't stop there. A double-braided nylon jacket protects the cables and provides flexibility and abrasion resistance. Flexible insulation surrounds the conductors, so they can bend easily without damage.

Features

DuraTek Lightning-to-USB Cable: The Belkin DuraTek Lightning-to-USB
cable is constructed from superior quality materials for ultimate durability.
Kevlar fibers reinforce the inner wiring for added strength, abrasion-resistant
nylon forms a tough outer jacket, and highly flexible insulation minimizes
damage from friction. The strength created by these resilient ingredients is
further enhanced by smart design details to reinforce the cable at its stress
points. This ensures the cable can withstand even the most demanding routines,
and perform above and beyond expectation to deliver a cable that is extremely
durable.

Dupont Kevlar: One of the key ingredients of DuraTek's secret strength
is Kevlar. This resistant aramid fiber is used the world over for everything
from bullet resistant vests and crash helmets to surfboards and extreme sports
gear. Strong Kevlar strands are built into the cable adding ultimate strength.
Able to flex without stretching, these fibers provide structure to keep the
wires inside from damage.

Double Braided Nylon: The external cable braiding is made from a
premium and hard-wearing nylon material. Double braiding is a technique used in
rope making and gives maximum strength and added resilience. This makes the
cable abrasion resistant, more flexible, lightweight and less prone to fraying.

Flexible Insulation: Inside the cable, many wires co-exist to provide
better functionality and conductivity. Insulation protects the wires from damage
as the cable bends and flexes, but some can cause stiffness, affecting the
overall suppleness of the cable. The highly flexible insulation within DuraTek
minimizes friction, allowing the cable to bend easily and the wires within to
move without damage.

Better Strain Relief: The 18mm strain relief where the cable joins the
connector head has been optimized to withstand the greatest amount of bend
cycles. Made from flexible TPE, this added length and flexibility helps to
absorb stress and reinforce the juncture between the cable and the connector
head to prevent separation. Proven in testing to withstand 5000+ cycles where
the cable is bent to 180-degrees, this cable is highly resistant to splitting
and breakage. Not just flexible, TPE is also smooth, tactile and more
environmentally-friendly than the standard PVC.

Q & A

Customer Q&A

Crutchfield askedWhy did you buy this?

I needed a strong cable that can take the abuse of being in the car all the time and connected to the back of the unit. For $30, I expect this to do that.
